About
Storm Interiors offers a comprehensive range of interior design services and a broad collection of custom-designed furniture and lighting products. Committed to architectural integrity and accomplished in a broad scope of design styles, Storm is celebrated for its fresh interpretations of living and working environments that address client vision and functionality. Neither pure traditionalists nor modernists, the Storm team dispenses with aesthetic agendas and offers uniquely tailored solutions that balance progressive design and traditional sensibilities.
We honor the revered Billy Baldwin's statement,
“Nothing is in good taste unless it suits the way you live. What’s practical is beautiful...and suitability always overrules fashion.”
I aspire to reflect work that personifies Baldwin’s statement
as I am constantly merging disparate styles, colors, and patterns into beautifully expressive and functional living environments.
Accomplished in a broad scope of design styles, I’ve been fortunate to be recognized for my fresh
interpretations of living and working environments that address each client’s own
personality and lifestyle. Working on only a handful of projects annually, I maintain a collaborative and personalized approach and employ what I refer to as a “bespoke, smart mix.”
As The Robb Report stated “...Fishman is the kind of designer who revels in the power of customization.”
After graduating UCLA’s School of Interior Design and Environmental Design program, I worked as a furniture designer, expanding my knowledge of the custom–design process, and joined Kelly Wearstler as Senior Designer for
residential and hospitality projects prior to launching Storm Interiors.
Some notable projects include a sprawling estate in Beverly Hills, a Silicon Valley entrepreneur’s San Francisco penthouse, a family-friendly traditional East
Hampton home in Brentwood, a celebrity’s Spanish modern abode in the Hollywood Hills, top entertainment executives’ offices and a sleek lifestyle hotel
in South America touted by Conde Nast Traveler as one of the top boutique hotels in the world.
Our work has been profiled in numerous publications and blogs including Dwell, Interiors, Domino, California Home + Design, The Robb Report, Luxe, Apartment Therapy, Traditional Home, The Hollywood Reporter and The Los Angeles Times, to name a few.

Each project in the Storm Interiors portfolio - chic executive offices, sprawling private residences, baby nurseries, restaurants, a fitness studio, medical offices and numerous other distinctive spaces – begins with a definitive design concept formulated in partnership with the client. This concept establishes a point of view that runs throughout the space, whether referenced to the construction of a lighted suspended ceiling or to a fine detail in the hardware of a walnut cabinet. The carefully considered synthesis of functional space planning, color and texture, proportion, scale and lighting, is key to Storm’s core design principles and enhanced by service built on close client collaboration and responsiveness. Fishman claims that it is often her clientele that pushes and inspires Storm’s design. “We have a strong design point of view – yet our solutions are centered around the client,” says Fishman. “We never repeat what we have done previously but rather work to lead our clients to new possibilities based on their own vision.”
